Just looking for any reviews of the Lowa Weisshorn. Looking for any info on comfort, warmth, and durability while hiking, snow climbing, and ice climbing. Anything about sizing would be great as well.

Hi William--

I've had a pair of the Weisshorn for a couple years now and LOVE EM.

elevationoutdoors.com/the-l…

Warm, climb hard enough, walk well...really a great boot. Realize, though, it's lasted a bit differently than a narrower Sportiva-type boot. Fits a wider, flatter foot, for sure...I've had a bootfitter buddy of mine help me dial my pair in...and it took relatively little monkeying about...and they are my favorite insulated boot that I've worn. Vastly superior to my old Nepal Extremes...haven't worn a SCARPA mont blanc....so I can't compare.

Anwyay, I've led 5.8 in them, easy WI5, walked hours and hours, spent seven hours on a route at 13,000 feet and totally warm...

Great boot, for sure. Love 'em. If you have a narrower, low-volume foot, though, try 'em on first, make sure they'll work. Good luck, buddy!
